Based on a study by the Ethical Force Program, led by the Institute for Ethics at the American Medical Association, Ensuring Fairness in Health Care Coverage helps employers make difficult decisions about the fairness -- and perceived fairness -- of the health benefits they provide to employees.

This groundbreaking book tackles complex questions such as: whether employees with higher salaries should pay more for the same coverage than those earning less * whether it�s fair to charge employees who smoke or who are overweight more for their health insurance plans * whether employers should pay for domestic partner benefits * whether they should pay less for mental health care than for physical ailments * and more.

Readers will find real-life scenarios, along with concrete steps for handling what are often tough and sensitive issues. They will also discover a proactive approach to safeguard against employee resentment, legal appeals, and adverse publicity.
